Thanks both, the sfc \scannow has got it down to 7 minutes instead of 10! I'll try the hibernation disable option and see what happens. I do love the hibernate facility, would be a shame if I had to lose it...

Thanks, have done that now, it said it had repaired some files so I'll see how the next hibernate and wake up goes! (I'll do a restart as presume that could be useful in the circumstances...)

A couple of weeks ago my PC accidentally got powered off at the mains while it was in the process of hibernating. Ever since it has taken almost 10 minutes to turn on when waking up from a hibernate. My system restore points don't go back far enough to restore to a point before that happened...

Thanks, the CPU fan has its own separate controllable setting labelled CPU fan, so I think the AIO pump is different, it's either referencing water cooling that I don't have, or its actually the chassis fan 1 and mislabelled (and when I alter its settings, for example turning it off, that has no...

Thanks everyone so far. I've got Fan Xpert4 installed as part of AI Suite 3, and by playing around with the fans I've been able train my ears a little on which sounds are for example from the CPU fan, chassis fans etc. I don't think the chassis fans are the issue, although Fan Xpert4 will only...

Thanks, I've installed iCUE and from watching a YouTube tutorial, it looks like I don't have the "Performance tab" option to give fan control, I only have an option to control the fan lights. I can however see the fan speeds in the Dashboard, just no option appears for me to control them

It's called Spectroid, usually use it at gigs to determine any frequencies causing feedback but figured I'd see if it was any help for this purpose!

Thanks all, just for some clarity on that decibel level, which I know is confusing, the figures came from this app on my phone. With the PC off the room reads approx minus 90, then when I switch it on it goes to about minus 70, therefore an increase of 20db.

Thanks I'll have a good read of that and see how I get on!

Loving my new PC Specialist desktop. I've been doing YouTube live streaming recently from my GoPro connnected to th GoPro app on my phone and the connection is quite unstable so I want to connect the GoPro to my PC instead and use PC software (OBS) for more stability. I'm confused as to whether...

"Order Dispatched" :love::love:

Looks like I'm ready to order! Thanks a lot everyone who's helped get me from my disastrous starting position to here 😊

Thanks, well I think we're nearly there! Can I just confirm which of the 2 M.2 drives I should have the OS installed in to please? Also, are the standard thermal paste and processor cooling options selected sufficient for this system? Thanks again 🙂
